Problems solved by technology

However, theoretical studies have shown that when the dielectric properties of liquid crystals change, the operating frequency amplitude modulation (frequency shift amplitude / center operating frequency) of negative refractive index materials is only 3%, which obviously cannot meet the application requirements of negative refractive index materials.

Abstract

The invention discloses a liquid crystal-based broadband electric field-adjusted negative refractive index device and a method for manufacturing the same, which are used for solving the technical problem that the conventional negative refractive index device has narrow operating frequency. In the technical scheme, in a liquid crystal injection cavity formed by copper-clad plates and U-shaped pressing strips, the liquid crystal serves as a substrate of the negative refractive index device, so that the working frequency of the negative refractive index device is changed to the greatest degree. Due to the characteristic that the liquid crystal dielectric property is easily controlled by an external field, by applying an electric field to change the equivalent dielectric constant of the liquid crystal, the working frequency of the negative refractive index device is dynamically adjusted, and the highest adjusting amplitude is 10.4 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a negative refraction index device, in particular to a liquid crystal-based broadband electric field adjustable negative refraction index device, and also relates to a manufacturing method of the electric field adjustable negative refraction index device. Background technique [0002] Negative refractive index materials exhibit a negative refraction effect that existing materials in nature do not have, and can be applied to the design and preparation of new electronic information components. However, ordinary negative refractive index materials can only work effectively in a certain frequency band, which greatly limits the application of negative refractive index materials. [0003] refer to Figure 9 , the document "Tunable fishnet metamaterials infiltrated by liquid crystals," Applied Physics Letters, 2010, vol.96, p.193103-1-193103-3," discloses a negative refractive index material based on a liquid crystal metal fishnet str...
